How to treat otalgia following common cold in children?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Simple measures: Most kids with cold based otalgia will respond to simple comfort measures like Acetaminophen or Ibuprofen (after 6m). I have some success with a heat source like a heating pad turned to a low setting but used to cradle the affected ear.
